This. Everyone likes to joke about the oncoming AI bubble, but the real looming concern is both having both the bubble burst and the companies getting bailed out using tax payer money for "national security" reasons
The difference needs to be jail time in federal prison for the entire c-suite. Just because they aren't pulling the trigger doesn't mean their actions won't lead to the suffering and death of others.
I know all too well. I want a better future, I hope for it. I also know that we live in a world where the people of privilege seem to believe their lifestyles are a right for them instead of a privilege.
And seizure of their assets. Hire an army of forensic accountants and claw back every single penny they've stolen from us. Then throw them in a nice oubliette.

There's no underlying business.
You bail out the banks, they go back to mortgage lending, taking deposits and writing loans.
You bail out the automakers, they go back to making vehicles.
You bail out the "AI" companies, they go back to... writing cheques they can't cash for data centre capacity they cant use with nowhere near the customers and revenue to justify a fraction of the capacity.
In other words, you bailout a functional industry, you get a functional industry. You bailout OpenAI and they come back in 6 months needing another bailout. A larger one.
In other words, you bailout a functional industry, you get a functional industry. You bailout OpenAI and they come back in 6 months needing another bailout. A larger one.
The entire problem is that if they were a properly functioning industry, they wouldn't need a bailout. Deregulation -> Banks take dubious risks due to terrible process control -> market crash is a familiar enough pipeline that it's happened multiple times in the last century of US history.
Manufacturing is a lot more complicated, so I won't really get into it. IMO they shouldn't have bailed them out, but there are enough reasons that you can understand why it would be politically acceptable.
OpenAI is uniquely dysfunctional is what makes this so weird, though. It's got big Theranos energy, where it's misrepresenting the capabilities with the assumption that by the time people start becoming more critical, all of the issues will be fixed. At the same time though, it's rapidly trying to scale and pouring insane amounts of money into R&D.
There are legitimately great things about LLMs such as those using the GPT framework, but the stock price of OpenAI and the brand recognition is so great that they're just trying to capture every single conceivable market, regardless of whether the tech is there or not. It's inevitable that it's one of those companies that is held up by hype and not financial statistics...making it a time bomb that could explode in months, years, or even decades.
The entire problem is that if they were a properly functioning industry, they wouldn't need a bailout.
There can be structural and frictional issues in industries that do justify bailouts and the industry can be reformed, regulated or just get past the termporary issue and then thrive in future.
Theres also political and strategic reasons for propping up marginal industries as well.
I can’t wait for AI companies to have full access to private government/citizen information leading to massive leaks of people’s social security numbers or some fuck ass bullshit.
I've already had four companies leak my shit. One gave me a free year of bonus credit reports and another for me 40 dollars in a class action! Good thing the ssn number doesn't stick with me the rest of my life.
Wouldn't it be fucking amazing if the US government took all that money and gave it to people losing their jobs instead of throwing it to the endless gaping maw? At least then it would do something useful.
The huge ones will probably survive in some form, its all the custom wrapper around GPT for this industry types that are going to get leveled if they aren't the biggest name or two in their area.
This is exactly what I've been saying for a while. It seems as if the whole thing is a collective scam to generate a situation where they get to claim to be too big to fail, too important to let the work stop, while burning through cash as if they were burning it to generate the electricity. But that cash doesn't just vanish. It goes to contractors. It goes to people. Well it's certainly not going to random people walking down the street. It's disappearing into shell companies and multi-layered accounts, and crap like that. So that the people running this scam will have hidden money to last them for the rest of their lives, so they can build those bunkers that they're going to need when the people come after them.
Thing is, bailing out banks or defense contractors (or whatever) has some value because they at least have the potential of being profitable. It doesn't make any sense to bail out OpenAI. Maybe Microsoft/Nvidia/Google/etc could get bailouts because they have products that make any sense financially. You can't bail something out which was never viable in the first place.
It seems that, right now, the only real 'victims' of an AI crash would be companies and people who have invested vast sums of money into the industry. It is not critically integrated into our economy yet. Unlike something like the 2008 crash, which caused mass foreclosures because it was tied to the housing market and big banks.
And all the models are similar enough and easy enough to swap out with each other that there aren't any industries relying on their continued existence.
Whereas if Boeing went under they'd stop providing parts to a lot of vital industries that rely on their equipment.
Heck, Chinese models are open source and can be locally deployed. People are making money on hosting Chinese models on their GPU farms and renting them. Their only saving grace so far has been "we are the best American LLM source" but META and Grok aren't far away and Zuck and Musk have better political connections.
I don't think there's a clear definition of "too big to fail". In the case of AI, I can very much see all these companies saying AI is necessary for national security as an argument for bailouts
for a company to be deemed "too big to fail" in needs to be able to generate a big enough domino effect that would not only affect its primary market, but secondary ones too and risk bringing down the majority of the financial system.
And in the case of OpenAI, its getting there, as a default/bankruptcy on the OpenAI will reverberate into the entire tech sector. It would be the equivalent of a bank run on all tech stocks. which will then in turn will spillover into the financial markets and insurance since a lot of these contracts are debt.
The S&P500 has an extreme concentration in the top10. The Top 10 amounts for over 40% of the entire S&P500 mcap.
Nvidia alone amounts to a staggering 8%+ of the S&P500 market cap, which is insane when you think about the fact that NVidia makes fucking graphics cards. Between NVidia and Microsoft they amount to over 15% of the entire S&P500 capitalisation.
No, the key metric is who holds their debt. If other financial players are at risk of going under if they default, then they become a "systemic risk" aka too big to fail.
At a quick glance, the debt OpenAI has taken on is financed by industry players such as Oracle and Microsoft as well as investment banks like Softbank. There is, as it currently stands, no risk of spill-over to the savings segment.
That's as far as the facts go. However, as we all know, the current administration helps those who lube them up sufficiently; so of course OpenAI would get bailed out.
In their current position, OpenAI really can't become too big to fail like a bank could.
OpenAI isn't unique or providing a service or value 10 other AI companies or start ups are not providing.
They're not publicly traded.
They do not provide a service that is depended upon by a large portion of the population.
They only employ 5000 people.
The only thing OpenAI has going for them in this scenario is that they are the third leg of a three legged revenue laundering scheme between Nvidia and Oracle.
OpenAI is making a single massive mistake. It is trying to use large scale debt, government funding, and expansion with reckless abandon to try to overcome the monopolistic market forces behind companies such as Google. That fight is always going to result in a pyrrhic victory in the best of cases.
We've already seen it this year. OpenAI releases GPT 5.1, Google releases Gemini 3 Pro and that simple action brings OpenAI to a full blown existential crisis where Sam Altman calls for all hands on deck to rush out GPT 5.2.
This is of course the actions of a rationale and stable company with a bright future ahead of it. /s
They're now deliberately creating a bubble so large that the government will have to stop it from bursting. It's part of the techbro takeover. The government will have to pay them forever or everyone starves when the economy collapses.
Yeah its too suspicious how every single big company is adopting AI all at the same time. They are definitely paying them big bucks to integrate and become essential to these services so the government can step in and bail them out like 2008.
I don't think they warrant a bailout. ChatGPT is a bit meh nowadays and they have plenty of competition (Claude, Gemini, Copilot, DeepSeek, I probably forgot a few).
If any of the Paul's become president I will immediately find the nearest hill and lay on it until the elements take me because I refuse to persist in such a world.
I feel like all these doom and gloom predictions related to open Ai have completely forgotten the era of Uber Amazon etc when they setting money on fire at the rate they were spending without any expected returns in the short to mid term.
Maybe, but it does seem that companies and investors are realizing how insanely costly the current race. Oracle (working closely with OpenAI for their datacenters) stock has tanked on the news of how much money they are putting in the race. Microsoft has slashed their AI sales targets because people just don’t seem that interested in what they have to offer.
Uber had a pretty clear road to dominance. With AIs people have no idea how to monetise it effectively. Google and OpenAI are both supposedly adding ads in the coming year, have yet to see how effective that is going to be. How reliable are people going to find the chat when you know it will recommend products based on who is paying?
This is why its a race to become irreplaceable, indispensable, and a facet of every part of your life from personal to career. Once Open AI is tied to every aspect of daily living and economic function it cannot be allowed to bankrupt and disappear. We've had "too big to fail" in the past but the scale of which AI is trying to present itself is far above losing an auto manufacturer or a single bank. But Open AI isn't the only one in this race, they're all after the same thing.
Speaking as someone who vividly remembers the 2000 dotcom crash, this whole situation is giving me serious deja vu; when companies start making circular deals to keep the hype/gravy train rolling, the derailment becomes inevitable and there's going to be significant collateral damage.
well there's the complicating factor the bubble is being funded with the money that apple and other big companies saved through over a decade of tax evasion to Ireland that they were allowed to bring back to the US without taxation due to a leniency thing after the tax loophole for Ireland was closed
*KNOCK KNOCK*
You have been randomly chosen for an inspection by the One World Government, surrender all your possessions and you shall get +7 social credit points this quarter(to be paid back at 9100% interest rate).
People don't realize just how intense this movie is. I went in dry, knowing that Quentin Tarantino had made it, but not realizing what kind of ride I'd signed myself up for.
Fur Elise on the guitar in the intro. Hans Landa coming into the house asking if he could smoke his pipe before switching languages and "sniffing out" the Jews.
It was a scary moment for all of us in the theater. We all held our breaths.
So yeah, this meme is funny, but man... this scene left a lasting impression.
Edit:
For those of you asking, it was Inglorious Bastards
That's what I don't understand. If no one can afford anything, who do they expect to buy their products? If the idea is to just have slaves again, then you don't have innovation, infrastructure support, culture etc. Gimping your own life for profits really is the most Capitalist thing I can think of.
Other businesses. They want to make a parallel economy where we as peons are all priced out and become outputs of production and labor rather than consumers. It’s a self feeding loop where the capitalists and business leaders all get richer and the only curated path forward for us through state violence is to fight amongst ourselves to get another rung up on the ladder.
That’s the worst part of it. It absolutely does not work but people with more money than sense and morals are stupid enough to try anyway and we’re all suffering for it.
100% won't work, they know it, we know it, the government knows it, yet we're still gonna do it anyway because of lobbying, money, and power being what they are.
That seems to be getting more true for general compute. They want everything locked down to run approved operating systems only, DRM to run only approved media, and AI overseer to ensure you perform only approved actions.
Also, it's 2032 and you just got in trouble for sending encrypted data. Zip files with passwords are illegal you doofus, if it can't be scanned, it has to be CSAM!
Am I missing something or when the ai bubble burst wouldn't the cost of ram plummet to where it was before (or even further due to over abundance if it takes that long?), since they will have to make something back?
Some companies might struggle or fail if the huge demand for their chips disappears overnight. The few left might keep prices high as their market share improved.
Ideally prices would go down, yeah, but man, the world has sure beaten that idea out of me over the years lol
A couple of months ago I decided to clean out my computer spare parts closet. I threw out a old PC (AMD with DDR3.) I got lazy after that and stopped. Thank god I got lazy. I didn't get to the newer stuff. I didn't get around to the old 1/2 TB drives, DDR 4, and DDR 5 ram. I'm thinking about asking for the 1080 TI back from my nephew. hehe
Dude, even the DDR3 stuff especially a working board is worth putting up on Ebay. I swear one can make a decent business cleaning out everyone's closets and listing so long as your storage is good and cheap.
i am not going to surrender my rams for your benefit
RAM is already plural
The random access memories we made along the way?
Where are those who share the (random access) memory?
https://preview.redd.it/5hb0wrrmsg7g1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=2b44c112f401355b185b3697ccda22ff85f8c7a5
Now you will share a memory that is accessed randomly at 2 am
logs in Deer butt
Skikanoko style flashbang
RAM MY ASS, PAL.
wait nvm
Technically, memory in random access memory is an uncountable noun and doesn't have a plural form (like water).
r/whoooosh
This isn’t a whooosh
Open AI isn’t gonna make it to 2032 with the debt their taking on
Just wait for the bailout. It seems that's their strategy - become "too big to fail" and "Gib muh bailout or crisis".
This. Everyone likes to joke about the oncoming AI bubble, but the real looming concern is both having both the bubble burst and the companies getting bailed out using tax payer money for "national security" reasons
Seems to be a repeating theme
The difference needs to be jail time in federal prison for the entire c-suite. Just because they aren't pulling the trigger doesn't mean their actions won't lead to the suffering and death of others.
Good luck. The fed is literally in bed with them. We are fucked for the next three ish years minimum.
I know all too well. I want a better future, I hope for it. I also know that we live in a world where the people of privilege seem to believe their lifestyles are a right for them instead of a privilege.

I do like the Theranos comparison.
Probably make the bank bailouts in 2008 look like small change too. ☹️
The bank bailouts were at least paid back over time.
I can’t wait for AI companies to have full access to private government/citizen information leading to massive leaks of people’s social security numbers or some fuck ass bullshit.
I've already had four companies leak my shit. One gave me a free year of bonus credit reports and another for me 40 dollars in a class action! Good thing the ssn number doesn't stick with me the rest of my life.
“Your compensation will be equal to the amount of a fuck we give”
Bro everyone's social security number has already been leaked like 10 times over just in the past few years. Americans are screwed
Wouldn't it be fucking amazing if the US government took all that money and gave it to people losing their jobs instead of throwing it to the endless gaping maw? At least then it would do something useful.
No no no you see uh uh ummm trickle down economics pull yourself up by the boot straps uh another 10 billion to Israel!!!!!!
Don't forget another $40 billion to Argentina.
Why would the US government do that lol They want to make their friends and donors richer, not be supportive of their tax payers and constituents.
Europe is so cool, we have both! /s
cant wait for 2026 to introduce a new limited edition flavor of globalist dystopia
The huge ones will probably survive in some form, its all the custom wrapper around GPT for this industry types that are going to get leveled if they aren't the biggest name or two in their area.
the world: can it run crisis?
Can agents speedrun crysis?
They can pretend to.
They'll create AI videos of them doing the speedruns.
This is exactly what I've been saying for a while.

Maybe Microsoft/Nvidia/Google/etc could get bailouts because they have products that make any sense financially. You can't bail something out which was never viable in the first place.
Microsoft and Google, maybe.
Nvidia's underlying business is far too small for the size of bailout they would require now.
Don’t worry, there isn’t enough money for a bailout :)
(You have no idea how apocalyptic that statement is)
Easy, just print some more
It seems that, right now, the only real 'victims' of an AI crash would be companies and people who have invested vast sums of money into the industry. It is not critically integrated into our economy yet. Unlike something like the 2008 crash, which caused mass foreclosures because it was tied to the housing market and big banks.
In a lot of countries, a big part of that is going to be people's pensions.
OpenAI does not employ enough people to get government bailout at the level of Boeing and such.
And all the models are similar enough and easy enough to swap out with each other that there aren't any industries relying on their continued existence.
Whereas if Boeing went under they'd stop providing parts to a lot of vital industries that rely on their equipment.

At this point Gemini is essentially at parity with GPT, if not better.
Wouldn’t their service have to be integral to our daily operations in order to be too big to fail?
just has to be integral to the stability of the stock market, which it is
I don't think there's a clear definition of "too big to fail". In the case of AI, I can very much see all these companies saying AI is necessary for national security as an argument for bailouts

They dont need to be
nah, only integral to the economy, AKA, the entire stock market being propped up on top of their bullshit
No, the key metric is who holds their debt. If other financial players are at risk of going under if they default, then they become a "systemic risk" aka too big to fail.

Don't think they know about second financial crisis, Pip.
As long as they've bought a gold bauble before they go bankrupt, they'll be prepared to bribe their way to a bailout

Not sure how that's going to work out with several viable American alternatives.
They're now deliberately creating a bubble so large that the government will have to stop it from bursting. It's part of the techbro takeover. The government will have to pay them forever or everyone starves when the economy collapses.
Wouldn't surprise me if closedAI ended up as a government slppaganda factory. The lines between the corporate world and the state are blurred as is.
Yeah its too suspicious how every single big company is adopting AI all at the same time. They are definitely paying them big bucks to integrate and become essential to these services so the government can step in and bail them out like 2008.
Their cfo already hinted it. They tried so hard to dress it up as something else but it's just a bailout with a bow.
The rhetoric from Altman is disgusting, "give us these bailout guarantees or cancer research stops".
What crisis?
I dunno. Just saw something about the IBM CEO saying its gonna cost something like $800 billion a year. Gov cant even bail that out.
I don't think they warrant a bailout. ChatGPT is a bit meh nowadays and they have plenty of competition (Claude, Gemini, Copilot, DeepSeek, I probably forgot a few).
They aren't system critical, let em burn.
You can sell it to China
"You can bail us out, or we will ask China to"
If we’re still scavenging for DDR5 in 2032, it doesn’t even matter. Just launch the nukes. 🤷
Sorry, the missiles were scavenged for memory in 2029.
We were worried about a rogue AI converting everything into paperclips but it'll actually convert everything into RAM
At this rate i'll still be on DDR4 by that time so i might be the one going through the trash for an upgrade

The 100M per 1.25 days is not sustainable, you say?
But if they manage to achieve General AI, we will all be doomed. But at least right now that's still a theoretical concept.
I have a feeling Altman has been up to a bunch of shady shit and he'll go the way of Martin Shkreli

I was there on opening night.
People don't realize just how intense this movie is. I went in dry, knowing that Quentin Tarantino had made it, but not realizing what kind of ride I'd signed myself up for.

So yeah, this meme is funny, but man... this scene left a lasting impression.
Edit:
For those of you asking, it was Inglorious Bastards
Saw it on opening night as well, what a movie
It's interesting since a lot of that scene is 'inspired' by The Good The Bad and The Ugly but executed extremely well of course.
the language switching is so jarring, I loved it
Especially for people that pirated without English subs, imagine
OMG! You also saw it? Such a hidden gem!! It's a miracle two of us have seen this niche indie movie. Can you believe it? What a coincidence!
harsh but fair
Is this copypasta?
If not, absolute lol
:)
At the rate we're going nobody will be able to afford anything that is able to access the internet so the only thing using AI will be other AIs.
That's what I don't understand. If no one can afford anything, who do they expect to buy their products? If the idea is to just have slaves again, then you don't have innovation, infrastructure support, culture etc. Gimping your own life for profits really is the most Capitalist thing I can think of.

Honestly, that doesn't work but I wouldn't put it past short sighted billionaires to try.
That’s the worst part of it. It absolutely does not work but people with more money than sense and morals are stupid enough to try anyway and we’re all suffering for it.
100% won't work, they know it, we know it, the government knows it, yet we're still gonna do it anyway because of lobbying, money, and power being what they are.

That seems to be getting more true for general compute. They want everything locked down to run approved operating systems only, DRM to run only approved media, and AI overseer to ensure you perform only approved actions.
Also, it's 2032 and you just got in trouble for sending encrypted data. Zip files with passwords are illegal you doofus, if it can't be scanned, it has to be CSAM!
Cory Doctorow explored the subject fourteen years ago in ‘28c3: The coming war on general computation’ (transcript here).
Please drink verification can.
Don't tell the feds, but I have 32GB of g.skill trident z rgb ddr5 sitting in my desk as a backup right now.
Bro how did it increase so fast. My 32gb cl30 6000mhz ram only cost me like 100 usd (price converted from Php)
Open ai bought 40% of the world's ram
Human greed
You're sheltering memories of the solid state, are you not?
All part of a plan to transfer wealth from the working class to the rich. They want slaves, not workers.
It's a meme.... for now!
Off topic, thata a nice ass Calabash Meerschaum pipe. Wish I had that type of fuck you money to drop on one.
Am I missing something or when the ai bubble burst wouldn't the cost of ram plummet to where it was before (or even further due to over abundance if it takes that long?), since they will have to make something back?
Some companies might struggle or fail if the huge demand for their chips disappears overnight. The few left might keep prices high as their market share improved.
Ideally prices would go down, yeah, but man, the world has sure beaten that idea out of me over the years lol
The RAM they're making for AI stuff is mostly HBM for the ai gpus, so it wouldn't be particularly useful for consumer stuff.
You'll be able to build a shack in a shanty town out of H200 modules you rescued from a skip.

I have a Ryzen 3…
(Gets shot anyway)

Someday running AI on hardware that doesn’t meet the minimum specifications will be a capitol crime.
This future feels uncomfortably plausible already to me
Me with CL26 64gb 😎
Not such a silly purchase now was it Micheal?
Was I the only one who read Dance Dance Revolution 5?
A couple of months ago I decided to clean out my computer spare parts closet. I threw out a old PC (AMD with DDR3.) I got lazy after that and stopped. Thank god I got lazy. I didn't get to the newer stuff. I didn't get around to the old 1/2 TB drives, DDR 4, and DDR 5 ram. I'm thinking about asking for the 1080 TI back from my nephew. hehe
Dude, even the DDR3 stuff especially a working board is worth putting up on Ebay. I swear one can make a decent business cleaning out everyone's closets and listing so long as your storage is good and cheap.
That's a bingo😁😁
That's a bingo😁
I think this will be reality
Open AI is more like Engelbert von Smallhausen in Allo Allo than Col. Landa.
The machine apocalypse it's not going to be humans used as batteries like in Matrix but rather as RAM
More like Google and Microsoft(govt proxy)
And Oracle, they already love their lawsuits.
3 of them actually
Hopefully the AI bubble will have crashed by then.
Bitch, I have 64.
You will eat ze bugz. You will have ze ddr3 ram. You will be habby.
-le german accent guy
In 2032 it won’t be 32 GB sticks it will be 128 GB.
Just Crazy that my old order of drr4 ram from 2024 is now 3x the price.
Fuck. Who are they sending if I have 64?
Im not going turn in my RAM to be tortured in datacenters
These companies can just download the RAM like we used to smh.
Reminds me of the time I had over 400 GB of DDR4 under my bed, almost all of which I got for free.

It is 32 but it's DDR4
